Topic: Tiny start but it is mining! 3060 LHR start of a rig. (Read 131 times)
Download latest version NB miner and you will get 35mhs from them each. you can set power limit to 60-65 core-100 mem clock 1000-1300 and be happy with extra hash 
it will be 105mhs in total
it will be 105mhs in total
First of all well done in starting mining and at that price,no matter 500 USD or 500 EUR I would also buy these cards.You are using them in Ethereum which the LHR can only get to 30 Mhsh maximum but there is the RVN coin where I have seen these cards perform somewhat better,certainly when Ethereum price will go down as right now mining Ethereum is the best you can do and that hash rate can get you 225 USD monthly while in RVN those cards give you in total 72 Mhsh which gives you 212 USD slightly lower right now however keep in mind that when the Ethereum price will go down you can be making more with RVN so keep this as an option for when (hopefully it is as far away as possible) that time comes.
500 euros or dollars?
In my country, this video card costs $ 1100-1200.
I would also buy for $ 500.
Use this iminer, the latest version is very good according to reviews, but you need to choose the optimal settings for your video cards

Right now I haven't done any boosting or tweaking so getting 90MH off this 3 card rig. I will get there.
I got the 3060 LHRs for 500 a piece so just went for it, with the gamble they will LHR unlock, but even then it seemed like a good choice.
I think I am hooked and want to build another (after adding a couple more cards to this) so really need to research which cards to buy.
